More Denali

On Monday, July 21st we took another shuttle bus ride into the interior of Denali National Park. This one was only a 132-mile, 8-hour round trip. We again saw lots of wildlife - Caribou, Doll Sheep, Red Foxes, several Golden Eagles, three adult Grizzly Bears and one cub, and a Bull Moose. The road was just as narrow and scary as the first time, but the scenery was still spectacular. Here’s another scenery picture.



Well, it was buy two, get one free - so on Tuesday we repeated what we did on Monday. We took another 132-mile, 8-hour round trip into Denali. Ditto on all the animals - did see one sow Grizzly Bear this time with two cubs.



Also, at one point the sun came out and pushed enough of the clouds away to let is get another look at Mt. McKinley - Awesome!



Today we finally left Denali after a week and moved on to Fairbanks.
